Thomas pichon series#

Johnston made Pichon the central character is a series of three novels. Pichon has been called repeatedly Le Judas de l'Acadie by a 20th-century French-Canadian priest-historian, and elsewhere his conduct has been uniformly deplored.

His 1760 book on Cape Breton Island- Genuine letters and memoirs relating to the natural, civil, and commercial history of the islands of Cape Breton and Saint John : from the first settlement there, to the taking of Louisbourg by the English in 1758-published in both English and French shortly after the conquest of Louisbourg in 1758, was the first such history of that island. They are held by the Bibliothèque municipale de Vire, in Normandy, France. Pichon left behind a very large collection of documents. Never a master of the English language, in 1769 he moved to Saint Helier, Jersey (a remnant of the Norman conquest where French was spoken), in which place he died on 22 November 1781. Pichon retreated to London in 1757, where he entered on an affair with the French novelist Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont, whose marriage had been annulled. The BGA can although predict a poor result of surgery when its score is equal or above 3/6.During Father Le Loutre's War, Pichon entered the service of secretary for Jean-Louis de Raymond, latterly reputed to be a place-seeker, who had been appointed Governor at the Fortress of Louisbourg and Île-Royale (New France) in 1751. “Vulnerable and sick” patients had a higher risk to keep their indwelling catheter after the surgery compared with “vigorous” patients. The BGA also allowed predicting a higher risk of failure in patients with a score ≥3 immediately after surgery (odds ratio 5.9, confidence interval 1.61, 29.9) and 3 months after surgery (odds ratio 6.9, 95% CI 1.31, 70.8).Ĭonclusion: Geriatric assessment can predict the outcome of endoscopic surgery for BPH for patients in retention older than 75 years. The morbidity was higher for the “vulnerable and sick” group (44%) compared with the “vigorous” group (15%) ( p < 0.05). The success rate at 3 months after surgery was 94% and 55% ( p < 0.05). The success rate immediately after surgery was 85% and 41% in the “vigorous patient” group and the “vulnerable and sick” patient group, respectively ( p < 0.05). Results: After geriatric assessment, 33 patients were classified in the “vigorous” group (55%), 25 in the “vulnerable” group (42%), and 2 in the “sick” group (3%). Patients underwent the brief geriatric assessment (BGA) and the comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) to classify them into three groups: “vigorous,” “vulnerable,” and “sick.” Success was defined by the bladder catheter withdrawal after surgery. Patients and Methods: We included prospectively 60 patients older than 75 years, with an indwelling catheter for acute or chronic retention, who were candidates to endoscopic surgery for BPH.

We conducted a prospective observational study to evaluate the results of endoscopic surgery for BPH in elderly patients, according to geriatric assessment. This raises the question of benefice and risk balance. Ojectives: Surgical management of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in elderly patients is associated with higher morbidity and mortality rate.
